Acoording to reports, producers are believed to have discovered that the campmates are covering their microphones and using hand signals to share secrets amoungst themselves.

A show source told The Daily Star: “The camp are so close this year that they have almost developed their own code.”

“It’s like they really want to win a war against reality telly,” added the source.

Meanwhile, audiences were up in arms last night after viewing what some regarded as ‘the biggest voting farce since Brexit’ after Larry Lamb became the latest celeb to leave the jungle.

The show has faced ‘fix’ claims after both Larry and Carol Vorderman left the show ahead of Martin Roberts, who hasn’t been such a hit with viewers.

Some viewers went as far to suggest that producers had kept Martin in to ‘create drama’.

One viewer said: “So obviously fixed to keep Martin in as he’s the only source of drama. B*****ks. Ruining the whole thing. #ImACeleb.”

The surprise was shared by the campmates, with a visibly shocked Googlebox star Scarlett Moffat saying how he was the “the most famous one in here”.

Scarlett is the current favourite to win the series, charming fans with her sense of humour and big personality.

Sun Bets spokesman Tim Reynolds said: “We expect her to entertain us with funny one-liners and melodramatic reactions all the way to the final.

“Her huge young fan base will be tuned in every night and look likely to vote en masse.”
